Sterilized instrument trays for surgical procedures are organized by service, but not by tray. The trays are scanned into the room, but not to a specific location. Some trays look similar from the outside, making them easy to put away in the wrong place. For the above reasons, SPS technicians need to spend time looking for trays, sometimes needing to look through the entire Sterile Storage area, to find the instrument trays needed for surgery, which leads to wasted time and increased inefficiency. In addition, the trays are currently stacked one on top of the other increasing the likelihood of a tear in the sterile wrapping which can cause an OR case cancellation. The storage racks are not on wheels, making it a challenge to clean the space effectively. If there is a prolonged issue with the temperature, humidity, or pressure relationship in the room, the instrument trays need to be removed from the racks and placed on a cart to transport to a different storage area. Transporting the trays in this manner is incredibly time-consuming and labor-intensive, taking time away from the reprocessing activities of SPS. Moreover, since each tray can weigh up to 25 pounds, it can lead to SPS staff injuries due to the physical labor involved. The requested storage system will maximize and organize the available storage space and have mobile, modular racks that can be easily moved as needed. In the requested storage system, racks will be color-coded by service, every instrument tray/container wi…
